THURSDAY, DEC. 28. Tk« State BtU Mut the Banka* The Savannah Georgian notices approv ingly the recent order of tho Superintendent of the State Road, prohibiting agents from receiving the bills of any banks except such as aTe payable in Savannah, Augusta or Charleston. We expected to see tho press of those cities amiably patting Mr. Cooper’s back for thus prostituting the State Road to purposes of favoritism towards their own banking institutions to the detriment and in jury of other reliable specie paying banks. This is one of the rewards for his palpable abase of his office. Outside of the favored cities, however, this unjust discrimination [CcrrMpondunc* of the tlaSjr IntiUIgsawr.] Tklnfi In Xiw York.

The St. Louie Intelligencer publish es the names of the jury who, after they had acquitted a man tried for murder, adjourn ed to his cell, having been invited to do so, where they indulged in a regular carousal, one half of them becoming beastly drunk. Beautiful jury! Iu the case of Dr. Beale, Philadelphia, a similar charge was made.— Tho jury was carousing and getting drunk, and damning the clergy, and generally ma king the jury system very odious.

Congress.—So little business of interest has thus for been done in Congress that it is almost useless to publish the detailed ac count of the daily proceedings. The custom of letting the real practical business of tho short session go by the board until after tho holidays, has come to be so generally obser ved at Washington, that any variation from so pleasant a usage to members is not expee ted. It is to be hoped, however, that when the New Year fairly commences, tho members will begin to feel the propriety of putting their shoulders to the wheel of legis lation and attending to the great and im portant interests of the country to promote which they are sent to Washington. fggf Considerable excitement was occa sioned in New York on Wednesday by the arrival of a vessel from Antwerp, having on board one hundred and fifty paupers and twelve convicts, all of whom had been sent thither by the Belgian government. The convicts were immediately arrested and placed in prison until seme provision can be made for sending'them back to Belgian. 16?“ The Boston ; majority, and by their efforts the bequest | has been divided almost entirely to the ben- i efit of their denominational institutions, ! especially the Roman Catholic Orphan Asy- 1 him. The testator was a poor boy many i years ago, serving on a farm in a menial | capacity and suffered himself the hardships ; of poverty. He bought a large tract of wild i land in the ancient town of Breuchlin, as : he grew up aud accumulated a little money. He was laughed at for wasting his hard . earnings on such worthless land, but, re- j gardless of the world’s opinion, he built a j little hut in the centre of his possessions, visions and ammunition is then precarious, and, in a country where no food can be ob tained, the situation of a hostile army un der the most favorable circumstances must be critical in the extreme. Hence the Crimea was the last point in his dominions where Nicholas anticipated an attack.

His whole avail able forces in the Crimea amounted only to some 25,000 men, including the garrison of Sebastopol. Reinforcements, however, could ! be brought up in a fortnight’s time, and, provided a sufficient delay could be obtain ed, Sebastopol and the Crimea were safe.— In Prince Menschikoff's despatch sent to St. Petersburgh before the battle of the Al ma, the plan of the campaign was distinct ly laid down. lie was to hold the allies in check by a series of engagements, retreat ing, if unsuccessful, on the city. There he expected to receive the powerful aid of Li- prandi’s division. But if this, from any un foreseen accident, did not arrive, and he found it impossible to defend Sebastopol with the force under his command, he in tended to blow up the forte, sink the ships, and hold off until, with an increased army, he could offer the enemy battle with hopes of success. Pursuant to this plan a skir mish first took place near Eupatoria, in which the Russians lost 1,500 men, occa sioned chifly by the guns of the allied ves- j sels.

Miller was shot a little below the heart, and Nash in the small of the hack. We The jury in the case of Arrison, charged ,^hat the army shall be made ready for war, but he refrains from indicating the course which Prussia will adopt. Meantime, the Berlin papers publish a dispatch from the Baron Von Mantueffel, Nor. 15, to the Am bassador at Vienna, expressing the deter mination of the Prussian Government not to demand from Russia any concession be- i yond the four points. It is indeed stated, ! but should be received with caution, that at ! a Council held on the 6th, the King of Prus- but continue to protect the town by repeated en trenchments. It is stated that several hun dred Russian wagons, laden with provisions and amunition, were overtaken by a snow storm, and lost, and that at present there are only provisions in Sebastopol for four teen weeks. Prince Menschikoff states that on the 24th the fire of the allies had become very feeble. But a dispatch from Constantinople states that the bombardment had been renewed. The Allies were surrounded and protected by an enormous circumvallation, consisting of curtain i with advanced bastions and im mense earth works in triple lines. Flags of truce had passed between the Generals, and it was agreed to change Dun- kellen, by desire of the Czar, for a Russian Captain. A Telegraphic dispatch, dated at Vienna on the 7th, says that the reinforcements to the number of 9,000 men bad reached the Crimea. The Duke of Cambridge was ex pected at Constantinople. Admiral Ilame- lin has resigned the command of the French fleet in the Black Sea, and has returned to France. A dispatch from Bucharest of the 6th, says that 40,000 Turks and one hundred guns will be embarked at Baltschilk and Varna the week after, for the Crimea. One remains at Bucharest. Danish Bey repla ces Mnssa Pasha as commandant. Mussa superintends the embarkation. Omcr Pasha will leave in a few days. This is consider ed doubtful. Three more ships are ordered home from the Baltic, and about the 10th itirt., the re- maider will leave. Admiral Napier has ob tained leave to return direct.

Prince, which arrived here a few days since with the 46th Regiment and a cargo valued at £500,000, and indispensably necessary for the prosecution of the siege and the comfort of the army. The loss of tho Prince seems to have been partly owing to the neg ligence of her officers. When she arrived at Balaklava she let go one of her anchors in thirty fathoms water. It appears that the cable had never been clinched, and the whole of it ran out; anchor and cable were lost together. She then let go the anchor, the cable of which was so inefficiently fastened that she lost this also. She then steamed out to sea until she could get up another cable from the hold, and at last let go a smaller anchor, with which she rode until the tem pest broke upon her on Tuesday morning. An eye-witness saw her carried from her moorings on to the rocks with such force that in ten minutes there was hardly a piece a yard long remaining. She might almost be said to go to powder. Of a crew of 150 only 6 were saved. This splendid vessel of 2,700 tons was purchased by Government some time since, and sent out full of most valuable munitions of war. Everything is lost. With the exception of the troops, ev erything remained in her at the time she was dashed on the rocks. The whole of the winter clothing for the men has gone down —40,000 suits of clothing, with under gar ments, socks, gloves, aud a multitude of other articles of the kind, vast quantities of shot and shell, and not least in conse quence, the medical stores sent out in con sequence of the deficiencies which formerly existed. The latter were, with not uncom mon negligence, slowed away under the shot and shell, and could not be landed at Scutari .

(Exeunt omnes.) Astounding Mail Robbery.—Wo have already mentioned that a man named Stone had been arrested at Elmira, N, Y„ on the charge of robbing the mail. It appears that an old man named Gates had the contract to convey the mail to and from the cars, and that he allowed his son, a wild and frolic some youth, to handle the bags. This youth, it is alleged, conspired with Stone, who was employed in a livery stable, and perpetrated a series of robberies for a year past, throw ing the rifled bags into a privy. The Mew York Sun says; “ Stone, it appears, thought ho ha d made money enough in this way, came to New York, engaged a partner, and was going in to business with a very fine cash capital.— Ho made Gates, his drinking accomplice, promise when he left to rob no more mails, but Gates, getting short, undertook a ‘bag 1 on his own hook one night, and either being drunk or interrupted, left letters scattered about the privy, which being found by chil dren next day, were reports to the post master. The privy was searched, and from its vaults were fished up sixteen mail bags and any quantity of letters. In one bag was found a $30,000 draft. In another, $4,000 in money overlooked. Gates got but $4,000 in the bag he robbed, and left some $1,000 in it. Gates confessed all. Stone denies everything. Anecdote of Mr. Choate.—At the trial of the salvage case of the barque Missouri, at Boston, last week, in which a part of the cargo was embezzled by the masters of the two vessels, one of the masters testified that he told his comrade they would be found out and convicted, but he was overborne by the assurance given him that there was ns They are now lost, at a time when danger.
